pungent
chemical
fruit like
saine like

The correct answer is C. fruit like.

Esters are a type of organic compound that is formed when an alcohol reacts with an acid. They are found in many fruits and vegetables, and they are also used in perfumes and other fragrances. Esters have a characteristic sweet, fruity odor.

Pungent is an adjective that means having a sharp, strong smell that is unpleasant. Chemical is an adjective that means relating to or produced by chemistry. Saline is an adjective that means relating to or containing salt.

Pungent, chemical, and saline are all incorrect answers because they do not accurately describe the odor of esters. Esters have a sweet, fruity odor, which is why they are often used in perfumes and other fragrances.
